LaMotte 3-Way Instant Test Strips

LaMotte 3-Way Instant Test Strips provide a fast, convenient, and reliable way to monitor hot tub water quality. Each strip tests for free chlorine, pH, and total alkalinity — the three most important parameters for safe and comfortable soaking. Available individually or in bulk packs of 8, these test strips are a practical essential for every spa owner.

How to Use

1. Sampling: Remove one strip without touching the test pads with wet fingers.
2. Immersion: Dip the strip just below the surface of the water, swirl gently for ~2 seconds.
3. Reading Results: Hold the strip horizontally, pads facing up, and compare colors to the chart on the vial to determine free chlorine, pH, and alkalinity levels.

Frequency of Testing

• Routine: Test spa water at least once per week .
• After Heavy Use: Test after parties, long soak sessions, or when chemicals are added.

Safety & Storage

• Storage: Keep strips in the original, tightly sealed vial. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Handling: Avoid wet fingers on pads — moisture can cause inaccurate readings.

By adding LaMotte 3-Way Instant Test Strips to your regular hot tub maintenance routine, you’ll safeguard water quality, protect your equipment, and create a safe, enjoyable spa experience for everyone.
